​“We came to AFCC Gurnee after multiple miscarriages looking for answers, and solutions to whatever our fertility problem(s) were. We are so glad that we did. This week, we welcomed our son into our family. There's no better solution than him. 👶💕​

​“During our time receiving care, we worked primarily with Dr. Olutunmike Kuyoro, but, at times, we also had appointments with Drs. Michelle Catenacci and Eli Reshef. They were all kind, thoughtful, and professional. At the early stages, Dr. Tumi seemed genuinely curious about getting to the bottom of things, as opposed to just ordering this or that standard test.​

​“When we thought we were losing a pregnancy due to what just turned out to be a subchorionic hematoma, she also made room in her schedule for an ultrasound the very next morning. 🫶​

​“Our experience with billing was straightforward. We had insurance through BCBSIL (Select PPO). After our first appointment, they told us immediately what was covered. Like any sustained medical care, the stream of co-pays for visits, procedures, and labs can become uncomfortable. But we never felt surprised by anything. ✅💵​

​“We drove to Gurnee from Milwaukee because AFCC came recommended to us, and because we had been disappointed with the care we received working with one of the big regional hospitals. We'd make that winter commute again, if we ever need future fertility care.” ❄️🚗​

​💙 At AFCC, we’re honored to walk alongside our patients through every step of their journey. Your trust means everything—and your happy endings are why we’re here.​
